AI-driven vulnerability prioritization tools are helping CISOs move from reactive patching to proactive threat mitigation. Unlike traditional CVSS scores that measure theoretical severity, AI tools incorporate threat intelligence and contextual factors to generate more accurate risk scores, reduce alert fatigue, and lower breach costs. Key challenges include lack of model explainability and integration complexity. Best practices for implementation include starting with a pilot program, maintaining human oversight, and integrating with existing patch management workflows.
